What is Pipe Heat Loss ?

To simplify heat loss calculations, pipe heat loss is based on the heat loss per linear foot rather than the entire area of any given length. Also, for pipe insulation, the outer area of insulation is greater than the inner area due to wrapping insulation around the cylindrical shape of a pipe.
